Felix, was a young handsome man who didn't know the meaning of love. He only knew desire and passion.
Gift is a beautiful young girl who had secretly loved him and it was a dream come true when he noticed her and asked her to be his girl.
There was one problem though, she refuses to be one of his numerous girl friends. She had to be THE girlfriend and hope that the obsession that runs in her family does not affect her or her relationship.

An Unholy Obsession

The next day, Chinonso went to work leaving instructions that Gift should not go out. 


Though she protested that she was not a baby but a full grown woman who could take care of herself, 'Am I not the one who came here from the village by myself? I could have got lost you know. You know how long a distance it is from thee village to this place. So why would going round to acclimatize myself with this environment cause me any harm?' she asked. 


Still, Nonso refused. 'My heart will rest easy knowing that you are safe in the house. I shall try not to be long. When I get back, then we can go strolling. Only when I have shown you alot of places and all the possible route back to the house would I rest easy and allow you to go out and move around on your own. Do we have an understanding?' he asked. 


Chinonso went off to work and Gift decided to stay home like she had promised him.
